Suntour
XC-II pedals
: Suntour made these amazing pedals that came on KZ-83 LaserLite models
as well as other high end BMX bikes back in the 1980's. These were actually
designed for mountain bikes but were more popular on BMX bikes. Suntour
made some of the best pedals around and these pedals featured high precision
sealed bearings for super smooth action. They were very light with their
aluminum bodies and alloy cages which could be replaced. The bolts on
the XC-II pedals (at least mine) did not say Suntour and these pedals
were available in both 1/2inch size for one piece cranks or 9/16inch size
for three piece cranks. These pedals were re-buildable and spares were
sold separately from dealers. Made in Japan

Suntour
XC-II pedal cages and spindles
: Suntour was kind enough to sell repair parts separately for their high
performance XC-II pedals so we did not have to go out and buy brand new
ones. Cages were sold in pairs (above) and came in plastic bags. On the
right is a picture of spindles that were also sold separately and came
in the same plastic bag like the XC-II pedal cages. Cages came printed
with "SUNTOUR X.C - II JAPAN PAT. PEND. " on the outside.

An old advertisement
from an old BMX magazine in 1983 showing the new Suntour XC-II pedals.
Kuwahara LaserLites (KZ-83) came standard with these pedals as well
as other high end BMX bikes.

KKT
(FMX) Lightning Pedals
: These were used on all the Kuwahara KZ-1 bikes and were one of the best
pedals ever designed back in those days. Made in Japan by the Kyokuto
Manufacturing Company. These pedals came in beautiful anodized colors
of Red, Blue and Gold. Silver was also available and I believe black was
too. Available in 1/2inch size for one piece cranks or 9/16inch size for
three piece cranks.

KKT
(LMX) Lightning pedals
: These pedals were very similar to the classic FMX pedals and used the
same outer cages. The only difference with the LMX pedals was the magnesium
inner body to help reduce weight slightly. The downside was higher pricing
and a less attractive appearance. These were KKT's High end pedals back
in the early 1980's. Available in the same colors and sizes as the standard
(FMX) Lightning pedals.

Suntour
Pedal cages
: A spare set of New Old Stock (NOS) silver SunTour pedal cages I have.
SunTour also made excellent pedals that were almost identical to the KKT
lightning pedals back in the early 1980's. In fact the SunTour pedals
seem to be a lot rarer than the KKT pedals. I do not see many NOS sets
for sale nowadays. These cages are stamped SunTour BMX Japan on both sides.
